They have a marlin in .44 mag that's probably coming home too, eventually.



A good big bore six gun with a barrel between 4 and 5 1/2 inches is just a joyous thing. Especially if you can put in the time to master it so you can make shots that aren't possible with revolvers.


Iron truth.

The danger with the 45 Colt, Jim, is that you just may like it better than everything else.

Direct Impingement is the Fart Joke of military rifle operating systems. ⓒ
